"So the Snake's finally come out of his hole? Are you ready now... my brother?"In the first feature film-length episode of Shadow Moses Book Club, our intrepid hosts face a gauntlet of daunting questions: can they possibly make sense the last two acts of METAL GEAR SOLID in a timely manner? Are Solid Snake and Steve1989MREInfo the same person? Which United States Senator has FOXDIE? Is this game actually about eugenics, or is it about something else? Is it secretly a brilliant piece of fin de siècle art for the twentieth century? Has Hideo Kojima ever met a woman before? Is Otacon Mormon? And - most importantly - did Matt ever manage to beat the Ninja?All of these topics and more are covered in the following 100+ minute long fever dream. We're sorry/you're welcome.Next episode: METAL GEAR SOLID 2, up through the end of the harrier boss fight.---Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes cutscenes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8PrtD8aOTcRyan: @celebrityhottub.bsky.socialMatt: @mattbrown.bsky.socialVictoria: @dirtbagqueer.rocksShow account: @shadowmosesbook.club
The year: 2005. While the end of the Cold War and an era of nuclear disarmament once promised a peaceful millennium, the world is less safe than ever. All around the world, governments struggle to dispose of the weapons of war they just spent a half-century developing. We now live in an age of genetic experimentation, classified weapons testing, and special forces units gone rogue. One such unit, FOXHOUND, has just seized the nuclear disposal facility on Shadow Moses Island. Their demands? The body of their deceased commanding officer, the visionary Big Boss. Their threat? Nuclear annihilation. Twenty-four hours are on the clock, and there's only one man for the job. A stupid, gullible, horny American operative, the legendary Solid Snake.Because even if the Cold War might be over, the next war will be fought by those it left behind.Next episode: The rest(?) of METAL GEAR SOLID (1998).---Ryan: @celebrityhottub.bsky.socialMatt: @mattbrown.bsky.socialVictoria: @dirtbagqueer.rocks
